So long as your provider supports "multiple hops" you should be able to
do something along the lines of:

  UUCP file iaehv!gremlin!file

to send 'file' from huitink to gremlin via iaehv.  This should just leave
the file in the huitink spool directory on gremlin.  You may have to
change your setups to allow files to be received into other directories
(see uuman:security).

Note that apparently Amiga UUCP does _not_ support multiple hops.  As
your respective machines will be on the end of the chain rather than in
the middle however you should be OK as long as your provider (iaehv)
supports it.

Note also that I have never actually done this so I'm working only on
my understaning of how things work in theory.  That is, I could well be
wrong :-)
